Paul McCobb Contempri Eclipse: Teapot, coffeepot, covered jars (the center one is the sugar, I'm not sure what the other two are: either the jam, mustard, or honey)

Great shapes

Great shapes in this line. Nice photos! I'm partial to the lids, as well.

I'm with you on that. This

I'm with you on that. This line manages to be sophisticated and groovy at the same time.

Luckily, this is one of those patterns that are still fairly easy to find at reasonable prices. A couple of years ago, my mother found a basic service for 8 at a thrift shop and gave it to me for Christmas. I thought I was gonna die!

I like this pattern best in white.  I had a huge set I've been slowly piecing out... I never had any of the pitchers - those are really cool.  My set has a couple interesting serving pieces, but nothing really rare - like your cool bud vases & stuff.

All White

If you're doing all-white, you *could* add in some of the solid colored pieces for an accent. For example, I have a Contempri sugar bowl with a solid orange bottom, and white lid. That could look really smashing with your all-white set.

color

I think color would look great mixed in.  I think I saw a some bright red and white pieces somewhere too.
